The tale of two Liverpool sisters and their search for happiness. When Kate and Rose Drew are orphaned, they are heartbroken to discover they are to be separated. Kate must go to Aunt Mildred, a hard woman who runs a Liverpool boarding house, who puts her to work at once. But Rose gets the wealthy widow Aunt Beattie, who lavishes her with gifts and attention. As one sister experiences hardship alongside friendship, while the other is spoilt and isolated, which will find happiness? For, eventually, it is not what Kate and Rose have in life that counts, but what they choose to make of it... A truly memorable saga that will charm readers of Helen Forrester, Katie Flynn and Pam Howes.

The prayers are for those who want to end the day with a simple form of night prayer. Father Boyer offers selections that correspond to the seasons of the liturgical year but are simple and easy enough to be prayed in a minute or two. Each is an original prayer that echoes words from the psalms and other biblical writings. His hope is that readers will keep these prayers on a night table or bed stand where they can easily reach them before turning out the light--when their day is done.

When Day Is Done is a soothing bedtime book, perfect for calming down after a busy day.

He was a son of Africa who became father to a nation and, for billions of people around the world, a beacon of hope, courage, and perseverance in the face of opposition. Now, acclaimed poet Maya Angelou honors the life and remarkable soul of Nelson Mandela, former president of South Africa and Nobel laureate. In His Day is Done, Angelou delivers an authentically heartfelt and elegant tribute to Mandela, who stood as David to the mighty Goliath of Apartheid and who, after twenty-seven years of unjust imprisonment on the notorious Robben Island, emerged with “His stupendous heart intact / His gargantuan will / Hale and hearty” to lead his people into a new era. This poignant work of gratitude and remembrance offers condolences to the resilient people of South Africa on the loss of their beloved “Madiba” and celebrates a man like no other, whose life and work changed the world. Praise for His Day Is Done “Moving and heartfelt.”—The Washington Post “A powerful, gripping tribute.”—NewsOne “[His Day Is Done captures] how many were feeling.”—BBC News
